Yesterday evening in after-hours trading $NVDA reversed sharply and closed up nearly 4% after a stunning comment from its CFO:

“We expect revenue to grow by approximately 70% in fiscal 2028. This is a supply-constrained outlook.” In other words, the world’s largest company believes it could nearly double revenue again next year—and demand would be even stronger IF SUPPLY COULD KEEP UP. What makes this remarkable is the timing. NVIDIA rarely provides guidance this far in advance. Offering such a confident outlook one year ahead suggests management has exceptional visibility into the AI infrastructure pipeline. The message is clear: The AI investment cycle is NOT slowing down. And the rise of AI agents may be about to unlock an entirely new wave of economic value. This is bullish 🚀 Semis, photonics, memory, power, neocloud, etc. Source: Michael Sikand

As highlighted by David Marlin on X, the most important line from tonight's $NVDA call came from the CFO.

“CapEx by the top 5 hyperscalers is expected to reach $800B in 2026 and $1.3T in 2027.” Consensus had $1.3T in 2028. She just moved it up a year to 2027‼️ It seems (again) that everyone is underestimating the strength of this AI supercycle Source: Marlin Capital

Strategy's preferred stock $STRC is now up 36% from its $71 bottom and just 2.65% away from its $100 peg.

But Strategy hasn't bought a single Bitcoin since June 22, over 9 weeks now, its longest pause in years. Instead of buying BTC, the company raised $2 billion last week alone by selling MSTR shares, using it to repurchase STRC shares, build up its dividend reserve, and launch a new $1.59 billion cash pool. Strategy's total cash across both reserves now stands at $6.69 billion. Source: Bull Theory
